"Most of our students are working full-time, raising a family, trying to make a better life. By providing convenient access to university degrees, we are creating a simpler, quicker path to achieving their educational goals and realizing their dreams," said Westerfeld.

"Because I work full time, it has been extremely convenient for me to be able to take night classes at Lone Star College-University Center," said student Ashley McDonough.

"I have been able to continue to work during the day and complete my master's degree at the same time. The facility at LSC-University Center is very well-kept and has all of the most modern equipment, which makes the entire educational experience very enjoyable," said McDonough.

"Within our 65 different degree programs, students can discover their passion, which will open doors to the rest of their life. A decade of success at LSC-University Center has empowered 52,413 achievers," said Westerfeld.
